First ★ [Voice/Action]
[What am I supposed to do now?
He doesn't know when his perpetual black faded into sleep, nor when he fell back on his bed--or when he got soaked for that matter. What he did know was that when he awakened... he was soaked, and could smell saltwater. Not to mention he was on the ground somewhere.] What...?
[Riku opens his eyes beneath the blindfold, regretting it a moment when the salt water began to make them sting. What he can subtly make out behind the cloth was that he was in a city of sorts, a few Hearts and shadow figures-meaning whole individuals-passing by... and was that a coral split into two? He shook his head, getting to his feet. Maybe it was time to get some answers, as well as dry off.
His hand immediately finds the SFC and after studying it along with drying off/out his blindfold and himself to the best of his ability if the towel over his head is anything to go by... he decides to make his presence known. The feed clicks.]
...Vatheon, huh. I don't suppose anyone would have any ideas as to why we are in the first place?
[Of course, the local who gave him a towel and a hair dryer for his blindfold had said nothing about why he was here. Rather, they changed the subject rather quickly. It irritated him, yes, but maybe someone else had the answers he desired.
Anyone wandering the plaza could quite well find him donning the black coat synonymous with the Organization and eyes hidden by a black blindfold to match, leaning against the wall of one of the many stores, examining the SFC and its functions as he gained his bearings.]

[Voice]
He blinks at that question, though. ...What. This is the second person who-]
How do you know my name?
[Voice]
...you have been here before. [He didn't tell Xion that trusting a familiar face would better to try to explain that to her. Riku on the other hand was a smart kid.]
[Voice]
... I don't remember anything about this place. [He's a bit skeptical, at best. Also, he's two or three stores down from said cake shop.]
[Voice]
Some times people would be returned here, but its a coin toss if the have memories of here or if they were the same one we had. This place can take people from any play and any time.
[Allows a moment for that to sink in.] ...Kairi is here too.
[Voice]
[Alright, hold on a moment as he reviews what he knows so far to make sure he's gotten it all straight so far. According to this man, he was here before, which would explain why two people from outside his cluster of worlds seemed to know his identity, and that memories of this place could be taken by...something, should they vanish and return. ...Huh.
Well, this all led to more questions than answers- wait.]
...Kairi? [Ooooh crap, conflicting emotions. On one hand to see his friend again in so long through his own eyes, not possessed by some demon of the dark-but wasn't he one himself now, in a sense?-and apologize for not being there when the 'lazy bum' was asleep when he told him to take care of her was something he certainly wanted to do. But on the other...
It was still there. The scent of his possessor, what caused so much pain for everyone...
He shook his head, deciding he would deal with it later. Instead, he switches his end to video; both giving away his location and just what was so different between the future-him and the present-him.]
... Let me see your face. ['The eyes cannot lie' and all that.]
[Voice---> Video]
The you here before was a little older. [He was smiling as he then held up his cake.]
I got some cake if you want a piece.
[Video]
That could also explain the lack of memories. [A pause.] What's your name?
[Cake... do want, but--] ...What's today's date, in this city?
[Video]
I wonder if it'll happen with my partner if he comes back. It would be great if he didn't remember some of the things here. [A bit sad as well.] I'm Tsuzuki. [Japanese and their last name thing.]
It's March Twenty-fifth. Not sure about the year of if they have a year system here.
[Video]
Seems like a 50/50 shot. [He pauses, then nods. -- Funny. Muraki introduced himself by his given name as opposed to family name.] Guess "nice to re-meet you" is appropriate.
The twenty-fifth... [Oh hey, there's a faint smile.] My birthday. [Oh, the timing Vatheon has.]
[Video]
Yeah. You got along with him! You both are serious and uncute. [The Doctor has more experience with different cultures/places though! Tsu might have been alive for nearly a Century, but he doesn't travel.] Nice to meet you again.
...really? You never told me. [Hey! Great timing for Tsu and the cake.]
[Video]
He chuckles under his breath, giving a faint nod. Hey, he won't deny being serious. Also, who cares? He travels a lot, too... and his name is Japanese; he just has no family name. No one does in his world.]
Probably because I don't normally keep track of dates. [Incredibly great; it's almost like the future D-Link told him it.]
[Video]
Well with every thing that happened here... [He scratched the back of his head. Should he tell Riku or not?]
I should warn you, if you meet Muraki again, to make sure you aren't alone.
[Video]
He frowns at that, facing away from the SFC. Um, a bit late on that since he sees a figure in all white coming his way. It takes a moment, but the feed flickers off before coming back on. He had to portal off.]
Tzusuki... you were a bit late on that. [A pause.] ...What did he mean by 'continue where we left off'?
[Video]
Tsuzuki was ready with papers in hand as he headed out towards the coral.
And then Riku was back!
...And the good Doctor had apparently visited him. Uh oh.]
He didn't do anything to you, did he? [Worried shinigami was worried. He knew he could trust the older Riku. This one clad in darkness with a blindfold? And remembering what Riku has said before?]
You won't like it. Can I trust you not to go after him?
[Video → Action?]
He can sense that worry, and shakes his head.] He didn't do a think except greet me. Though, that scent...
... I won't.
[Forever and ever I LOVE YOU~~~] I mean wut
at times!]I'll be there in a few moments.
[If moments equated to minutes, then a few minutes it did take. He hadn't wanted to run and risk ruining the cake. He jogged the remainder of the way. The blindfolded bloodhound likely could smell the scent of death on Tsuzuki. The usual smile was present.]
Did you wait long?
((Derp. It didn't tell me there was a response ;~~~~;))
pffft. Nice one, Pan. XD
He doesn't mind the wait. In fact, he's pretty much dry by the time Tsuzuki arrives,and he shakes his head. Though that scent... Man, this was weird.]
Not really.
((Darn you, notifs! o9))
\o/ 1/2
[He didn't sense the Doctor close. Almost tempted to send out some of his birds just to scout around, but he'll conserve his energy.
Riku was patient but Tsuzuki didn't want to test just how patient.]
I guess I should get on with it. [He scratched the back of his head before he settled on serious mode.]
2/2 I hope this makes sense. PFfft.
[Pause] Muraki had tried to repeat a curse to see if it would work here, but on your friends. He showed up during our investigation...
I can show you where it is, but there is quite a bit of darkness saturated there. You over did it last time, and assuming the time before.
It did. xD
His head tilts up slightly at the mention of Xion--was she missing memories of this place as well? But he'll wait to ask of that later. Right now, he's curious as well. Repeating a curse... So then these friends were vulnerable, if they were still here.
The location... Since his senses were sharper than ever, he nods faintly. If he arrived on the scene of the battle, he could probably make out what all happened then and better protect not just himself, but others as well.]
If you're right, I'll see it. [A faint smirk as he uncrosses his arms.] Lead the way.
AWESOME \o/ I rock...for the moment
A solemn nod as he nodded towards East.] This way.
[He really hadn't wanted to bring him there, but at the same time it would be the only way for Riku to believe and know what happened. So with a heavy heart, the shinigami led the boy to
doomthe forest.]I think you lost an inch.
Yes. For the moment. \o/
Riku followed silently until that comment, then chuckled.] I get the feeling I was older when I was last here.
AND WATCH ME FALL ON MY FAYSE
Was Terra back at home? Did you see him? [Only knows they are from the same world/universe.]
MORE LIKE INTO AN ORCHARD OF MINES XD
That question though makes his pause. Terra...? That name felt familiar, somehow. He frowns, shaking his head as he continued to follow.]
No. He wasn't.
[If only he knew what had happened to Terra--the man who had passed him the power. He would have said that 'he's right here...in a sense.' But he doesn't, thus he is confused when a less malevolent part of the shadow within him stirs at the mention.
Too bad there's no one to ask about this.]
*HOP. HOP. HOP*
herogardening bro!]How did you two meet anyways? [He was just going to babble and not think about potential spoilers. It was something to talk about other than that night.]
*ROARS WITH LAUGHTER WHEN IT'S ON A BOMB~*
OH SHI- *SENT FLYing~~~*
*Waves~~~*
*Bing~*
\o/
*Rezz'd* Time to do it again?
Why not?
